Evening all! Thanks for joining me for another episode. Today it’s the biggest steak in Texas! I’ll say no more, other than that I hope you enjoy it, save yourself the trouble of complaining about the cook on the steak 😆, and I’ll see you again on Sunday at a location I’m sure my fellow nerds will love… ‘Til then, stay insatiable! *This series was filmed between April 17th and May 8th.
I know a lot of food youtubers will be saying their please and thankyou's off camera, but i'm glad beard includes it in his editing- costs nowt to be polite :)
This blew my mind. I commuted past that place every day for 6 years. Had no idea they did a monster steak. Very cool to see my drive on a RUclips video
In the 70s, my father did the 72oz steak at Big Texas Steakhouse and loves to say "I ate the steak, a salad, two rolls, a shrimp cocktail, and washed it down with two beers and a strawberry shortcake"
I've seen eating challenges where restaurants try to get you to lose by adding extra couple pound of fries and other silly measures. This establishment seems very friendly and actually want you to win. She seems nice and even said that you didn't have to eat the gristle. A lot of these Texan restaurants seem to offer a great deal of hospitality.
Idk if you've seen the video but they actually did that to him at a hard rock cafe in Florida. It was so messed up. Watch Randy Santel (I think) do the same challenge, then Adam goes in and look at the difference.
For the white gravy with steak - we actually have a dish called "chicken fried steak" which is steak fried like fried chicken, served with white gravy. So not too far off actually.
Just rewatching this Beard and wanted to give you props for the Kool-Aid Man reference! Brought me waaay back and I truly enjoyed it. Thanks Adam. Great content as always sir!
@@lancsdragon2619 correct. Eat whatever tf you want, but best believe a steak that big, well done, is taking a solid hour unless butterflied, which completely changes the integrity as you mentioned
Apart from the eating i think its quite difficult to travel to a weird location, sit down and eat alone and still be entertaining. Adam you've developed a great relationship with the camera. Its very entertaining and im sure it much harder than you make it look
My uncle did one of these in Iowa a few years back. They totally cheated him too. Brought only half the steak out at first and they REFUSED to cook it any way but extra well done. They also didnt mention that it was only half the steak so when he finished it in 10 minutes he ended up sitting for about 30 minutes before they brought the second half out. Apparently it was cooked at the same time as the first half so it was tough and half cold. During his wait he also ate a plate of fried potatos, 4 slices of texas toast and 4 beers. He ended up running out of time because he had about 15 minutes to finish the cold second half on an almost full stomach. The steak cost $100 if you didnt finish it. And as a kicker it was his birthday and they KNEW that because they brought him a slice of cake at the end of the meal. Total dicks. That place is closed down now.
That doesn’t even make sense if it was cooked why not bring it out together I could maybe see only cooking half in case they can’t finish it so it don’t go to waist but let the people know what’s going on
@@erikrobles5727 to intentionally make him lose so that he has to pay. Clearly the place was ran by penny pinchers and the challenge was just a gimmick to get people in the place and spend a ton of money though deception.
@@erikrobles5727 They were intentionally making the "challenge" harder (pun intended) then it should be. Well done already is hard and dry enough that if you eat too much you choke but to serve it cold as well is just plan insulting to the meat.
I actually had to sign in to say this. The reason the chef has them place orange slices, is to be a squeeze topping for the steak. It's lovely, and A1 is just orange and other fruits and spices.
@@dsy6238 Actually I think he is a good entertainer and I can see why his videos are watchable. I merely want to remind commentators, who seem universal in their admiration and adulation, that maybe something isn't quite right.
@@basedbane787 In the UK we have food banks in virtually all towns. People do actually give to tbese food banks. What do they do in the US. .....walk by on the other side, dude?
If you use the grease from sausage, a tablespoon of flour, and a cup of milk/cream, you can make a creamy gravy like that. Once you get the flour to a no lump state, add a few more cups of milk, and simmer till you reach a consistency you like. Salt and pepper to taste, and boom. Country gravy.
Actually, the gravy request wasn't too crazy. We have something here called chicken fried steak that's usually served with cream gravy. (It's typically cheaper cut of beef that's been pounded flat, seasoned, breaded, and fried.) Beef and gravy is always a killer combo.
chicken fried steak and white pepper gravy is AWESOME stuff......Love it...better than well done ? sirloins...LOL......well done Sir ! no pun intended.....
@@jacolumbia2034 so is it chicken meat or steak that’s called that name? Sounds lovely whatever it is. Next time I go too America I’m going to have to start eating in more small restaurants and steak houses. Just too easy too pull into the drive thru and get a crappy McDonald’s or kfc. I mean we have all that in England so it’s no change.
@@matty6848 It’s a piece of steak that has been pounded flat and breaded then fried like you would normally see done to chicken. It is generally served with a white gravy but you can usually get brown gravy instead if you prefer it.
@@eragon78 He said, he fears we will lose such diners and I told him why his fear is legit. An off topic comment, but refering to his. And btw, can't I comment what I like?
@@RackwitzG I mean you can, but throwing out random political stuff is just asking for a fight, especially when its pretty off base. The president has very little to do with small local businesses. The "Price of steak" isnt controlled by him. Hell, even if you want to say its cuz of the inflation, The vast majority of that is due to the global supply shortage. Again, not really anything to do with the president. Its a global issue, not a national one. But yea, you can say what you want, but you just look like some ignorant guy on the internet looking to blame everything on the political party you dont like on a video that has nothing to do with politics. Its not a good look. Its especially bad when you use the term "Brandon" too which was only really meant as an insult. This shows your comment has no intention of actually being informative, its just a poor attempt to interject your very aggressive political beliefs into a conversation that has no reason to be political.
@@eragon78 Oh, we have an intellectual here. Great. I actually meant the energy cost, not the cost of steak. Will you scream to the sky when Brandon loses the next election?
I grew up on eating steak with a white gravy made with the oils left in the cast iron skillet after the steaks, with flour, milk, and salt & pepper. It was usually with a baked potato and a salad. Mmm yeah!
I was going to say, my family calls it milk gravy as it's a gravy made with milk, my family does it alot ourselves with both steak and with porkchops. Though instead of potatos and salad, generally with rice and either broccoli or corn.
Only halfway in and this is the most Ive laughed watching Beard's video. 'The cheesy' incident got me cracking and mom's roast beef was spot on! Couldve used the chainsaw to cut up my mom's roast too...
Our “country” gravy is a bechamel essentially. Just add some extra stuff but the base can be started the same butter, milk/cream, and flour. Butter can be replaced with bacon, sausage, or any other meat drippings
@@jasonpelto1164 you don't have to have butter to make a roux for gravy. It's just any kind of fat plus flour. Meat drippings are far more flavorful than butter is.
What's wrong with me!!! I sit here watching some guy with a long beard eat more food than I could imagine. And I do it everyday!!! I love it!!! Beard is such a pleasant guy to watch. Thanks!!!!!
@@amacca2085 there are many different types of gravy. Chicken gravy, mushroom gravy, sausage gravy, beef gravy, and your personal favorite, baby gravy.
“My mums ruthlessly dehydrated roast dinners”, hilarious that’s exactly how my mum cooked them too, she had to rehydrate the beef in a lake of gravy afterwards so we could swallow it.
He's a cow eating, Texas greeting, challenge defeating, impossible beating, bearded man that eats with his hands, can play instruments in bands.......and orders a cobbler. Great vid dude 🤟
Cobbler is just like a pie, but typically in a square baking dish and sometimes deeper than a pie. Same filling. Maybe some crumbles on top. They served it in a sundae dish with vanilla ice cream on top, most likely because cobbler tends to be quite messy and it's easier contained in a bowl than a plate. Plus most places server it hot with the ice cream.
no joke, my mothers ruthlessly overcooked roast beef dinners as a kid is what made me wanna be a chef, i thought there is no way im eating like that for the rest of my life
Good job, Beard! 👍 I had a 54oz medium-rare ribeye, french fries, mac & cheese, salad, and 2 rolls the other day, as a challenge at a local BBQ eatery. I was successful, if barely. So I received the meal for 1/2 price and got the all-important t-shirt. It definitely told me I'm out of practice, though. I wasn't running out of time, just capacity and jaw strength, because when I finished I had 14 minutes left out of a full hour.
Aykroyd listens to his stomach "processing nicely". Sleeper movie for sure. I love when he is telling the bear story to the family. Candy was the best.
I've had issues keeping my appetite recently and your videos are simply awesome. I actually get hungry watching your videos. I'm wondering if it would help my Nana to watch as well. She's 83 and losing her appetite recently. The doctors say she's underweight. I wish you the best and THANK YOU for sharing all of your yummy food challenges with us. The breakfast challenges are my favorite to watch. 😍 There's nothing better than sausage and bacon in over easy eggs (I call them "dunker eggs") and after I've eaten the yolk, I make a sandwich with the remainder of the egg and buttered toast. ❤️
You did GREAT, surprised at the lack of banter on their end (especially since it was quiet in there) and there should DEFINITELY be some kind of wall of fame. CHEERS!!
I lived in Plantersville for over 15 years. My parents still live right down the road from that place. I’ve eaten at that restaurant numerous times. That video brought back some great memories
Commuted past this place many years going to TAMU from Conroe and finally decided to go and do that challenge but chickened out and ordered a regular steak! Kudos to you and glad you made it to Texas.
No, he mentioned the cucumber right before that. In the UK a zucchini is called a courgette, which is why he asked what it was called 8n the US, and then he said "zucchini.." That was a slice of raw zucchini. You can tell because it has a dark peel around the edges. Its my favorite salad ingredient. If you haven't eaten sliced raw zucchini and you like salad, please try it! You can also slice yellow squash raw and it tastes similar. Both are technically squashes and both are mild and crunchy. Perfect for salad.
This episode was brilliant! Truly entertaining. Had me laughing from the bearded figure in the front entrance to moms dehydrated pot roast to the cheesy sauce! Great video Beard. 😂🤣
My son and I love your videos we watch them every time they drop. He says he’s the beard man when he eats haha. Do the restaurants ever look mad when you finish the challenge and have to give it to you for free.
I'm glad your sister wasn't doing that challenge with you,she would of eaten the salad and stuffed spud and let you eat both steaks by yourself. Well done Adam ❤🇦🇺
You had me at gravy. I had never heard of cream gravy, apparently it’s more common in the south. Also known as country gravy or white gravy. Country gravy, I am familiar with! I make my own using pan drippings from either sausage or bacon pan drippings, cream and some flour. Delicious! Hopefully you’re able to find something similar at home with one of those names. Also, another name for a “cheesy sauce” in the states is nacho sauce. Although, I’m not sure that would have hit the spot quite like the cream gravy did. Loved the video!
Yea we don't call it cream gravy either. Country or white but the way you said you make it is how it is suppose to make it with slight changes depending on the family
In my years of traveling one thing I've found about hole in the wall restaurants. The less they care about the external looks, the better the food is. I went to a Thai spot in Seattle that looked like they were squatting in it, but it was the best Thai food I've ever had.
My dad always cooked beef well done, think my parents didn't trust providers. In my twenties my friends would hassle me about the way I had steak cooked. Took me years to get to medium-well. I still can't even look at a rare piece of beef. You did good! Hello from rainy Oregon.
Great work as always, Beard!!! Also, since you were curious - I’m positive that was cucumber on the salad, not courgette/zucchini - raw cucumber sliced like that is a staple with side salads here in the US!
The Big Texan, I have been there three times and the last two times have really taste it awful, I got I think a 12-in steak, it looked more like a 8 in, it's a tourist trap
I've heard everyone who has done the challenge say the steak tastes terrible and sides are always cold. Boogie did a review of it but he did the challenge in the 90s
The white gravy is what I would call either cream/country gravy or sausage gravy (if it has bits of breakfast sausage in it). Made with drippings from cooked meat with some flour and milk, simmered until its thickened up.
It actually is pretty common to get that gravy with a chicken fried steak, but not with a regular grilled steak. Either way, I could see it being good!
@@Beardmeatsfood are you kidding, they actually put raw zucchini slices on your salad? That's definitely not a common thing here & oh my goodness it looks just like a cucumber. Was it spongy & a bit dry or crisp & really juicy?
Enjoyed the video. And that was a cucumber in the salad... And in Texas, queso is what we ask for when we want cheesy sauce and we eat loads of it with tortilla chips. I just found your channel and gave you a sub. Love it.
reminds me of the other day when i went to taco bell for lunch and ordered a nacho bell grande with triple cheese sauce and sour cream shit was delicious sometimes i like to order a grande meal with 5 crunchy and 5 soft tacos without veggies and double meat (i hate beans so no bean burritos) then i order 2-3 sides of cheese sauce to drizzle on the tacos and omg you never ate anything so good in your life there cheese sauce at taco bell is amazing! i already ate a quarter pounder value meal for lunch but now im craving taco bell lol damn...
@@Beardmeatsfood Petrol was 69 cents a gallon in the US I saw today on the news lol. The gas station manager put up the wrong price and lots of cars came round, that mistake cost them 16.000 dollars and it cost the manager his job.
There is a John Candy movie from the 80s called the Great Outdoors where he orders "the Old 96er" a 96 ounce steak. This is giving me flashbacks to watching it in my youth.

You devoured that meal in easy time whilst getting poetic. I dunno how you do it, man. Legend.
Argentina is pretty good if you go out to the roadside dinners amazing beef of all shapes and sizes
Cobbler is just like a pie, but typically in a square baking dish and sometimes deeper than a pie. Same filling. Maybe some crumbles on top. They served it in a sundae dish with vanilla ice cream on top, most likely because cobbler tends to be quite messy and it's easier contained in a bowl than a plate. Plus most places server it hot with the ice cream.
no joke, my mothers ruthlessly overcooked roast beef dinners as a kid is what made me wanna be a chef, i thought there is no way im eating like that for the rest of my life
Pretty hard to overcook roast beef how’d she manage that
@@stuffylamb3420 fuck knows, ask her 🤷♂️ i don't know cause I can cook
@@stuffylamb3420 - all it takes is cooking it too long with not enough moisture (cooking it uncovered) at higher than 350 degrees.
Beardmeatsfood, this is your superpower. Wow, I am hooked and can't stop watching. ❤
As a Texan, a lover a food, and a beard man. This is amazing to watch! You need to have a post about where your gonna be i wanna see this in person!!!
Nice! The "courgette" was a cucumber, very common in salads here.
I can't to make sure someone commented this.
Squash
Good job, Beard! 👍 I had a 54oz medium-rare ribeye, french fries, mac & cheese, salad, and 2 rolls the other day, as a challenge at a local BBQ eatery. I was successful, if barely. So I received the meal for 1/2 price and got the all-important t-shirt. It definitely told me I'm out of practice, though. I wasn't running out of time, just capacity and jaw strength, because when I finished I had 14 minutes left out of a full hour.
Reminds me of the movie The Great outdoors with John Candy and Dan aykroyd Great movie He attempted to eat a 96 oz Texas steak huge cut
Seeing you with that steak reminds me of the chef from the movie "The Great Outdoors" 😂
Absolute classic
Great scene
Exactly my first thought when I read the title. The huge slab hidden at the back of the freezer. 😂 John Candy, the legend. And Beard ofc! 💪
Aykroyd listens to his stomach "processing nicely". Sleeper movie for sure. I love when he is telling the bear story to the family. Candy was the best.
@@1bcordell big bear, big big bear
Dude is Legend! A major plus is he is so nice to everyone! Well done! Cheers
I've had issues keeping my appetite recently and your videos are simply awesome. I actually get hungry watching your videos. I'm wondering if it would help my Nana to watch as well. She's 83 and losing her appetite recently. The doctors say she's underweight. I wish you the best and THANK YOU for sharing all of your yummy food challenges with us. The breakfast challenges are my favorite to watch. 😍 There's nothing better than sausage and bacon in over easy eggs (I call them "dunker eggs") and after I've eaten the yolk, I make a sandwich with the remainder of the egg and buttered toast. ❤️
so much information
You did GREAT, surprised at the lack of banter on their end (especially since it was quiet in there) and there should DEFINITELY be some kind of wall of fame. CHEERS!!
Mister beard you never cease to amaze me I don't know where you put it another great job look forward to the next one
Awesome eating, you champ. Fair play to the restaurant for not overloading the challenge with 50 onion rings and 2lbs of fries. Well done matey.
thank you :)
I can’t even imagine trying to attempt this you’re a champ!
This is one of the best ones in my eyes haha if I could do one it would be this one
Omg, I can't believe you were right down the road! I'm really glad you enjoyed it. ♥
cool! How is this place? what city again?
@@lobstermania4025plantersville. My wife’s boyfriend lives there.
It's always fun listening and watching your videos Adam. Always impressive
Thanks Simon
“The salad is included for the safety of the patrons” very funny
i thought so
I lived in Plantersville for over 15 years. My parents still live right down the road from that place. I’ve eaten at that restaurant numerous times. That video brought back some great memories
I was just there last weekend. Went to P6 farms in Montgomery. Small world.
These always make me laugh. Especially after he crushes the meal amd then gets dessert.😂
Seriously some of the best service I’ve ever witnessed.
Love your work Adam
Commuted past this place many years going to TAMU from Conroe and finally decided to go and do that challenge but chickened out and ordered a regular steak! Kudos to you and glad you made it to Texas.
I made that same drive from the Woodlands to College Station from 1983 through 1985. Gig 'em! Some of the best years of my life...
😝💯
Except it wasn't a zucchini, it was a slice of cucumber. lol. Well done as always! Country gravy fixes everything.
I'm glad you said it and not me lol
Or it was a boiled or baked sliced zucchini...
no it was definitely not that@@sosig8332
No, he mentioned the cucumber right before that. In the UK a zucchini is called a courgette, which is why he asked what it was called 8n the US, and then he said "zucchini.." That was a slice of raw zucchini. You can tell because it has a dark peel around the edges. Its my favorite salad ingredient. If you haven't eaten sliced raw zucchini and you like salad, please try it! You can also slice yellow squash raw and it tastes similar. Both are technically squashes and both are mild and crunchy. Perfect for salad.
@@sosig8332 You can eat zucchini raw. And that was raw zucchini he was eating. It's awesome in salad.
I think the most amazing part of these videos is that he almost always gets a dessert after.
The Beard is a BEAST!! Only seen a few videos, but he crushes every challenge (time wise)!
This episode was brilliant! Truly entertaining. Had me laughing from the bearded figure in the front entrance to moms dehydrated pot roast to the cheesy sauce! Great video Beard. 😂🤣
thanks mate!
You got a 85 oz steak well done 😂 I’m a chef, and if that order came in I’d smack my forehead and set a 45 minute timer
I would say no lol
Before he explained the reason I was wondering if he ordered it well done because it would shrink more.
Medium rare is awesome
You'd be surprised how many people dislike bloody steak.
@@DeathhAngel1 even more surprising how many people dont know the red liquid isnt blood....
My son and I love your videos we watch them every time they drop. He says he’s the beard man when he eats haha. Do the restaurants ever look mad when you finish the challenge and have to give it to you for free.
I'm glad your sister wasn't doing that challenge with you,she would of eaten the salad and stuffed spud and let you eat both steaks by yourself. Well done Adam ❤🇦🇺
hahaha
I like how the waitress was just chillin like it’s no big deal that this guy is eating this much so food so fast and with ease
Its Texas. Children eat like this there lol
because she is twice his size......
Waitress still gets a tip probably
Murica
No wonder anymore why murica people need their "full size" suv's and pick up's...
You had me at gravy. I had never heard of cream gravy, apparently it’s more common in the south. Also known as country gravy or white gravy. Country gravy, I am familiar with! I make my own using pan drippings from either sausage or bacon pan drippings, cream and some flour. Delicious! Hopefully you’re able to find something similar at home with one of those names. Also, another name for a “cheesy sauce” in the states is nacho sauce. Although, I’m not sure that would have hit the spot quite like the cream gravy did. Loved the video!
Yea we don't call it cream gravy either. Country or white but the way you said you make it is how it is suppose to make it with slight changes depending on the family
I think his cheesy sauce is more like the stuff you'd put on cauliflower. Pretty mild.
At 11:21, who noticed that the waitress said, "well done!" 🤣 I just love a double entendre
In my years of traveling one thing I've found about hole in the wall restaurants. The less they care about the external looks, the better the food is. I went to a Thai spot in Seattle that looked like they were squatting in it, but it was the best Thai food I've ever had.
Because they care about the food rather than shallow appearance. They're nicer people, too.
Evening beard,this is the one we’ve all been waiting for. Mmmsteak! Got to love America for the size of their steaks.
Evening boss
My dad always cooked beef well done, think my parents didn't trust providers. In my twenties my friends would hassle me about the way I had steak cooked. Took me years to get to medium-well. I still can't even look at a rare piece of beef. You did good! Hello from rainy Oregon.
How can a restaurant in Texas not have pecan pie?!
how can you order a well done steak in tx and survive lol
Well done! Texas is proud of you!
As a native Houstonian it is awesome seeing you visit so many places that I am familiar with! Love the videos, keep it up :)
thanks mate
This challenge seems more like a bit normal lunch the way Beard is takling while eating😂 - with the mandatory dessert. Well done!!
Great work as always, Beard!!! Also, since you were curious - I’m positive that was cucumber on the salad, not courgette/zucchini - raw cucumber sliced like that is a staple with side salads here in the US!
Same here in the UK as well.
That was definitely cucumber
Man I love the fact that after a Monster steak you still went for the dessert 🤜 legend
Selling gluttony to a starving world.
someone suggested going to Japan for challenges, definitely need that done! love the videos, it's mesmerizing!
I had no idea Japan had 'food challenges'
They struck me as more logical people.
@@WV-HillBilly😂😂😂😂😂
Watching your videos relaxes me for some reason. .
In my home town, Amarillo Tx, has a 72 oz steak at a place called the big texan. Other food there is really good and the challenge is pretty popular!
The food there is horrendous though. When I went.. Basic at best. Just popular place for nostalgia
The Big Texan, I have been there three times and the last two times have really taste it awful, I got I think a 12-in steak, it looked more like a 8 in, it's a tourist trap
I've heard everyone who has done the challenge say the steak tastes terrible and sides are always cold. Boogie did a review of it but he did the challenge in the 90s
With that salad it would most likely be a cucumber rather than a zucchini but it’s the thought that counts 😂
The fact you made it through a well done steak of any size is incredible
save your fingers snob
The white gravy is what I would call either cream/country gravy or sausage gravy (if it has bits of breakfast sausage in it). Made with drippings from cooked meat with some flour and milk, simmered until its thickened up.
It actually is pretty common to get that gravy with a chicken fried steak, but not with a regular grilled steak. Either way, I could see it being good!
I usually ask, yes. But you can get it.
Not in the UK though
What an absolute legend. Been watching Beard for years now and I still don't know if the guy has a limit. That cheesy sauce though X)
thank you :)
We do call courgettes zucchini but what you had on your salad was a cucumber darlin, great job another awesome video
It wasn’t a cucumber 😆
@@Beardmeatsfood are you kidding, they actually put raw zucchini slices on your salad? That's definitely not a common thing here & oh my goodness it looks just like a cucumber. Was it spongy & a bit dry or crisp & really juicy?
No way! Thought they'd have Blue Cheese... it is so good with Steak... nicely done Beard too eeezay 😁
Enjoyed the video. And that was a cucumber in the salad... And in Texas, queso is what we ask for when we want cheesy sauce and we eat loads of it with tortilla chips. I just found your channel and gave you a sub. Love it.
reminds me of the other day when i went to taco bell for lunch and ordered a nacho bell grande with triple cheese sauce and sour cream shit was delicious sometimes i like to order a grande meal with 5 crunchy and 5 soft tacos without veggies and double meat (i hate beans so no bean burritos) then i order 2-3 sides of cheese sauce to drizzle on the tacos and omg you never ate anything so good in your life there cheese sauce at taco bell is amazing!
i already ate a quarter pounder value meal for lunch but now im craving taco bell lol damn...
One of my favorite things about a Beard episode is all the subtle differences between England and the USA
Like petrol prices? 😆
@@Beardmeatsfood Petrol was 69 cents a gallon in the US I saw today on the news lol. The gas station manager put up the wrong price and lots of cars came round, that mistake cost them 16.000 dollars and it cost the manager his job.
Cream gravy is a delicacy in Texas, and goes best with Chicken Fried Steak.
True. Best chicken fried steak I had was in Gatesville, Texas outside of FT Hood.
There is a John Candy movie from the 80s called the Great Outdoors where he orders "the Old 96er" a 96 ounce steak. This is giving me flashbacks to watching it in my youth.
when he got the cream gravy i actually shouted "YES!"
I was expecting them to offer him ranch dressing :D Texas' other creamy sauce.
This is my kind of challenge. There are a lot of different foods I can not eat a lot of but when it comes to steak...........I am an animal.
"Couldn't fit that in my mouth, or anywhere else for that matter!" What the heck kind of kinks do you and Mrs Beard get into?!!
😂
Well let's all hope that it won't be "Texas biggest sausage" next or we might just find out 😂
He meant his cabinets obviously! Come on mate, get your mind outta the gutter! 😅
Lmaoooo you got a dirty mind buddy🤣
Saving that for OnlyFans mate
